This really puts a downer on my day... I was a huge Novak fan, so this hurts me (though it won't hurt the team at all really)

Who will fill the role of token 6'10 white guy shooter? I would have been ok with this if we still had Greene, but now I'm worried about our outside shooting off the bench.

Does this mean that Maaaaaarty (or Francis or Mike Harris) will make the team in training camp?

Or does this mean that we have a bit more cash (but not much more) to give Landry a better contract?

This is obviously a business move, and one that isn't going to really hurt the team, but it was fun rooting on Novak.

^ how does francis NOT make the 15 man roster?

PG is our weakest position and he's "healthy" apparently...

1. Yao
2. Tracy
3. RonRon
4. Battier
5. Rafer
6. Scola
7. Landry?
8. Brooks
9. Francis
10. Deke?
11. Luther Head
12. Brent Barry
13. Chuck Hayes
14. Mike Harris
15. Joey Dorsey

That just about settles it, except for Landry and Deke.

Later, Steve. Nice knowing you.

There goes the best damn Dikembe Mutombo impersonator this team has ever seen.

Ehh, not surprised, didn't want to see him go really, but oh well.

No need for Novak when you have Ron and Battier at SF.

I liked Novak. He was a 3 point specialist. Argh, I remember he made that GW shot against the Kings. Dang. But yeah, would this move means that either Sean Singletary or Patrick Ewing Jr. will not be cut from the Artest deal? Or this move is totally independent from that?

CJballa14 · Post #17 » by **CJballa14** » Wed Aug 6, 2008 4:55 am

^ apparently we are cutting both... but I think singletary could give brooks a run for his spot on the team...

CuttingEdge · Post #18 » by **CuttingEdge** » Wed Aug 6, 2008 4:56 am

Out of all the names mentioned as to why and nobody mentions Brent Barry. Wow.. Duh..

I remember at the end of game 6 Novak hit some shots. The kid can shoot pure and simple. I was hoping the Rockets would get with him and they would find a way to get him more minutes, but I guess it won't happen.
